HP 15.6" Laptop - Shadow Black (Intel Celeron N4500/256GB SSD/8GB RAM/Windows 10)

Ordered this online and received it quickly. It was working ok for the first week or so except I did notice it got extremely hot while on my lap. At first, I thought it was because it was new. It continued being like that even when I shut it down and placed it on the table. 2 weeks into owning this product I had to return it to Best Buy because I got up this morning actually and it would not turn on. When I returned it, the gentlemen told me the light that was on above the numbers was an HP sign that something was malfunctioning. He told me if I held down the start-up button for about 15 seconds it would come back on. I returned it for a refund and will look for another one.

I bought this for its discount price, screen size, and Intel processor (recommended by IT at my workplace) and have used it for a week. Big pluses are its lightness, apparent structural integrity (feels like a solid little unit), and the USBC port. The latter was a surprise, but its compatible with my workplace's Mac docking stations, which has solved the biggest problem - storage. I've shut down cloud storage and am using my 1TB portable HD. Cloud synchronisation played havoc with my wifi at work & kept filling the laptop's drive. Only other issue is it runs hot, but I think that was during the massive data transfers.

Purchased June 22nd for my son's Birthday. He opened it August 22nd. It make a high pitched squeeling noise anytime there is supposed to be sound. Best buy won't replace even though it is a day out of box because it was purchased 2 months ago. HP won't replace it because it is after 30 days and after 4.5 hours on with tech support we have no solution other than sending in for repair for 14 days.......on a 12 hour old laptop!!!!

Wow this is the best laptop ive ever owned its fast and easy to use as well as plenty of storage and looks awesome

It gets over heated sometimes but it’s a ok basic lab top
